HBO Is Airing A Mysterious ‘Game Of Thrones’ Special In February

Don’t bother making plans, hell, don’t even leave the house on Sunday, February 8th. That night is the midseason premieres of The Walking Dead and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, the debut of Better Call Saul, and a one-off Game of Thrones special that HBO is calling “A Day In the Life.” Does that mean we’ll finally get to see Hodor read the news today? Possibly, but more likely, it’s a Hodor-less sneak peek at season five, which kicks off in April.

Last year, at the same point in the schedule (February 9th, 2014, be exact), HBO aired another “28 minute” special, focusing on Season 4…That special, “Ice and Fire: A Foreshadowing,” was not a “Here’s What You’ve Missed On Game of Thrones” special, but instead focused heavily on Season 4’s new characters and the major story lines going forward. With Season 5 adding in an entire major House this season, including a whole new segment of Westeros we’ve never been to that included filming in a whole new country, one could expect that this special is planning on doing the same thing.
